Farewell My Beautiful Homeland-Midi Size
That sad autumn of 1926. The Ottoman Empire has collapsed and the young republic is trying to stand on its feet. A man in that great upheaval:
Sehsuvar Sami... Once upon a time, the Union and Progress leader, today's tired commander. A relentless intrigue revolving around Sehsuvar Sami. On the one hand, his beloved Ester, whom he lost but could never get out of his heart, and on the other hand, the historical defeat... A lost country, a lost city, a lost life. And always the same question in your mind:
Is the state sacred or the human being?
“Death begins with losing our cities.”
I don't rememberwho said this sentence
, unfortunately it is true... It is true, but incomplete. Death begins with the loss of our cities and ends with the loss of our homeland.
What exactly is homeland? Is it a piece of land, endless seas, deep lakes, steep mountains, fertile plains, lush forests, crowded cities, isolated villages? No, homeland has a meaning beyond all these. It is not just a piece of land, nor water basins, nor a chain of trees... Homeland is our mother's compassion, the gray hairs of our father, our first love, our newborn child, the graves of our grandfathers...
A person without a homeland has no life. Yes, once upon a time my mind and heart were full of these ideas. Now? Now I don't know…
